I've had a running theory for a while that a chassis such as that gets shoved into the carpet a bit odd under high defensive forces, contributing to the "locking up" affect.

Any thoughts?
If I may request clarification - when you say "twist some vertically", do you mean the chassis bows upwards down the center parallel with the drive wheels due to lack of frame stiffness, and through this bowing all wheel sets are in contact with the ground?
